I forgot to mention:
That fish Dave is holding is a true wild California salmon, the little one is not.
There is a small roundish fin on the fishs' back between the dorsal and the tail on natural fish. You can see it in front of Dave's thumb. Hatchery fish do not have those (the one on the deck), they are cut off when a little RFID chip is brain implanted, I shit you not. They use them to track "farmed" wild fish.
If the CDFG (California Department of Fish and Game) happens along, you might have to surrender that fish's head. Lots of people aren't happy with that as they want to eat it. Not me, that's cool.. Take the head.
